 Wallace, Mike
While his journalistic credentials and tactics have been questioned at times, his longevity, celebrity, and ability to land big interviews made him one of the most important news figures in the history of television.
Wallace's move into interviewing at the network level came in the form of two husband-and-wife talk shows, All Around the Town and Mike and Buff, which CBS adapted from a successful Chicago radio program.
Throughout the 1940s he performed in a variety of radio genres--quiz shows, talk shows, serials, commercials, and news readings.

 NT Gateway Weblog
First White says we have to talk about the Bible when we talk about homosexuality and then he turns around and says, "The words that we often assume are found in the Bible are not even really there" so he dismisses the Bible's contribution.
It would be hard to say if it was the journalist who changed the references of the OT "community" to "church".
White is not telling the whole story at all as regards the scholarly consensus on these questions.

Larry King is an equal opportunity talk show host and I have enjoyed viewing many of his shows.
John King has already said he is leaving CNN, and I don't understand why the heck he would be irate at the Larry King matter.

 Why Janet Jackson Sucks
Off the record let's talk about the article on the Superbowl.
Janet Jackson on the other hand is the biggest fraud of all time, or at least of all the entertainers to make it mega-big-time in the last quarter century.
This last part used to gall me. A Janet Jackson album would come out, and she'd be on top of the charts, and you'd see her advertised everywhere, and then you'd hear one of her songs, all of her songs, and you couldn't hear her freakin' voice!

 WHERE EGOS DARE: ANDREW MARR MEETS NOAM CHOMSKY by David Edwards
Marr is not a liar and he is not a crude propagandist; he is the unwitting product of a system that selects for the ability to talk intelligently and convincingly about anything and everything, so long as it is not genuinely costly to power.
Marr chose not to respond, and instead moved on to Watergate, generally assumed to be the classic example of how the free press can humble the powers that be.
What Marr "doesn't get" is that the propaganda model does not depend on self-censorship, but on a system of filtering maintained by the ability of power to introduce bias by marginalizing alternatives, providing incentives to conform and costs for failure to conform, and by the innate human tendency to rationalize inconsistencies.

 Book Summary : The Case for a Creator: A Journalist Investigates Scientific Evidence That Points Toward God by Lee Strobel
Is it really possible to talk about an Intelligent Designer or a Creator of the Universe based on scientific grounds?
In short, this Case for a Creator is a cumulative case built from the discoveries and evidence of several fields of knowledge.
Engaging, easy readable and well written, Strobel's book was a very valuable source for me as an introduction to this unknown landscape: it opened new windows in my quest to know God.

 An Interview with Mike Wallace:
[Laughter] William F. Buckley once said, "I am sure that Wallace using whatever magic it is he disposes of would have succeeded in getting Jack the Ripper to talk to him on the subject of how London streets were crowded with unnecessary young ladies." [Laughter]
Mike Wallace is simply the backbone of the most successful program in the history of television — "60 Minutes".
Mike, as you know, this series has been devoted to exploring the role of journalism, the flow of information in the coverage of the war against terrorism.

 Mike Wallace
, the talk show Mike and Buff with his then-wife Patrizia "Buff" Cobb, and All Around the Town, wherein Wallace interviewed random people he met at parties or on the street.
With cameras rolling, Wallace is essentially still an actor, playing the role of tough reporter in "ambush" reports or sometimes haranguing Q-and-A. In 1982, General William Westmoreland sued CBS and Wallace after the show reported that Westmoreland had fudged his estimates of enemy troop strength during the Vietnam war.
One of Wallace's early interviews was with a very old Margaret Sanger, famed pioneer of birth-control and founder of Planned Parenthood.

 frontline: why america hates the press: Why We Hate the Media PBS
Journalists justify their intrusiveness and excesses by claiming that they are the public's representatives asking the questions their fellow citizens would ask if they had the privilege of meeting with presidents and senators.
That real-life journalists are willing to keep appearing in these movies, knowing how they will be cast, says something about the source of self-respect in today's media.
As Washington-based talk shows have become more popular in the last decade, they have had a trickle-down effect in cities across the country.

 Micro Persuasion: Citizen Journalism
I'd like to take this as an opportunity to talk about the increasing need for the PR community to swiftly react to all media inquires - both professional and civilian - in the era where the definition of “journalist” is anything but defined.
Jay Rosen at NYU and Chris Nolan (a former Merc columnist) have written a great post about the coming age of "stand alone journalism." Stand-alone journalists differ from bloggers and citizen journalists in that they are professionals who are using the same technology to strike out on their own.
This might be a new modus operandi for journalists: float an indisputable factoid on a blog (in this case a DNS record) and then follow it up with the real story once the rest of the facts come to light.

He said that he was a student of Bob Hunter and that Bob was instrumental in influencing the government’s approach to seeking alternative energy and cutting back on the use of coal in power plants.

We were at it again the other night: a bunch of journalists, old friends and colleagues, eating, drinking and thrashing out the problems of the country.
Around the table the other night, I was struck by the gap that's grown between the stories we're telling each other and the stories we're telling the public; between our talk and our work.

Gregory should not be confused with the biblical David who slew Goliath.
Gregory: "....Laura, Laura what's your take on this, because obviously the White House has made a determination that speaking about the war candidly as they can is what's important now and yet it's clear that the President's having a hard time being heard."

 Booman Tribune ~ A Progressive Community

One of the more pathetic spectacles available in today's media is the propensity of the tribe of journalists to interview each other about events, systems and areas of expertise of which they have only a limited grasp.
David Gregory is the one who came out the best on the show...but not entirely satisfactory for me...he seems to go right up to the brink of being on the right track and then stopppppps there.

Eisenhower came over the last day in office of Jack Horner, of President Horner, and gave a very fine talk, and it was very interesting.
At different times, President Truman would see John Cauley and John Cosgrove together and would say, "Well, there's a pair of Johns," and somebody would invariably say, "Yes, it takes Jacks to open." Although neither of us was called Jack, very often people with our name get called Jack.
